Penguin presents the audiobook edition of You Were Gone by Tim Weaver. Three days after Christmas, a woman walks into a police station. She has no phone and no ID, just a piece of paper with the name of investigator David Raker on it. She tells officers that Raker is her husband. When he turns up at the station, Raker is stunned. The woman looks exactly like his wife. She knows all about their marriage, their history, even private conversations the two of them had. There's just one problem: Raker's wife has been dead for eight years....

Un giovane uomo viene ritrovato presso la foce del Southampton Water contuso, malmenato e senza alcuna memoria di chi sia e da dove venga. La stampa si interessa subito a lui ribattezzandolo "l'Uomo smarrito" e diffondendone le immagini su tutto il territorio nazionale. Eppure, dieci mesi dopo, Richard Kite - sempre che questo sia il suo vero nome - è ancora alla disperata ricerca della propria identità. Nessuno, infatti, sembra conoscerlo, nonostante gli appelli e gli sforzi della polizia.

L'automobile viene ritrovata incustodita, nessun'altra testimonianza del passaggio di Lynda in quel luogo. Wendy Fisher, sorella della donna, incarica delle indagini il detective David Raker, specializzato nella ricerca di persone scomparse.

Questa donna le somiglia e conosce dettagli sorprendenti della loro vita insieme, ma non può essere lei.

With no bodies, no evidence and no clues, the mystery of what happened at Black Gale remains unsolved two and a half years on. But then the families of the missing turn to investigator David Raker - and their obsession becomes his.
